    It's an interesting concept. I think Steam HATES exclusives for a specific platform. The Steam deck was designed to bring their games TO the handheld space to INTENTIONALLY make it so Steam games were not limited to the PC/ Microsoft ecosystem. Making A deck exclusive game would be a backwards step for them. However, Indie developers TARGETING the deck while ALSO supporting PC would be VERY good for the deck. However, for some Indy titles, the Deck is ALREADY the best place to play them by nature of their game being possibly NOT on the switch or Cheaper on steam AND many Indie games have lower power requirements.

    About the emulators button mapping thing, I think you could have multiple profiles for different controllers or even the same controller in most emulators these days, and you could just switch profiles instead of remapping.
    Nice episode really loved this one 👍🏼.

  • @charliefen
    @charliefen Před rokem +2

    Coming back to this after just getting a Steam Deck is interesting. I do wish Nintendo had better account systems, but not for the reasons Bob said. Some people can only afford one console and their Switch may be their only one, so being able to share games more easily would be great. I still think the whole switching from TV to handheld thing works because of that. One of the other things that Nintendo does well (which is quickly disappearing with the whole deck verified thing), is having games just work out of the box. PCs were always a pain for me due to that, I just wanted to sit down and play. However, now more and more developers are working with the Steam Deck specifically in mind, I think that won’t be much of an issue with the deck for long.

    The whole uhaul trailer thing, you should look into it. Usually they do that because they do that with empty trailers as they are trying to relocate inventory to higher demand areas. When I move back home to California from Texas my uhaul trailer cost was like 400 or less because they had little inventory in California at the time lol.

    • @redlion145
      @redlion145 Před rokem

      I scrolled down to find a comment like this. It's definitely relocating empty stock, and not transporting client goods. Uhaul isn't a moving company, they don't offer services like that. It's actually in their name, "you" haul your own stuff using their truck, not the other way around.
      I mean it might be inconvenient to drive out of your way, but 500 or 600 dollars might cover gas for a trip from Texas to Pennsylvania, depending on how big a truck they've got and the gas prices. Rough estimate, of course, I haven't moved interstate in two decades.

    They should have presave configs in button mapping section like drop-down menu to select the system you're emulating. Then if is not to you liking you can edit the layouts and save them for each console emulation profile. Additionally you should be able to set a default dock and handheld mode profile that would not change unless in the specific system emulator.

Me and my dad are night owls tho, I deal with insomnia and my dad drives 18 wheelers. We do it in 28 hours going straight thru and only stopping for gas, 3 meals, and occasional bathroom breaks. Good gravy doi love the trip tho. So much gorgeous scenery, so many different types of cities to see, it's one of my favorite things to do every summer for the last 22 years. I hope you really enjoy PA, I spent loads of time there growing up all over the place. Quiet place.

    I love the Steam Deck for games that you can’t play on the Switch. With their most recent proton update, a majority of the jrpgs that had issues with cutscenes not working were fixed. All the YS games work perfectly fine now. All the “Legends of Heroes” games work great. My main purpose for getting the Deck was so I could play certain jrpgs like “Tales of Arise” in a portable space. I can get through jrpgs so much easier on handhelds. The only issue is transitioning from much higher frame rates to lower frame rates on the switch. There legitimately is a transition period where it takes a few sessions for me to get used to the lower frame rates. Then it straight up doesn’t bother me anymore.

    Personally got the Steam Deck a month ago and it has completely replaced my Switch largely as there’s no games coming for Switch I am into at the moment and I have the whole Steam library to play with including a load of PS4 content now migrating over. Big problem for the Deck is availability if they could do Nintendo number maybe but its never going to replace Nintendo whilst they have the exclusive content they have.

    Personally it’s killed it for me. The switch was only good for indies and exclusives. Now that the Steam deck does indies better. Actually PC has always been the place for indies. All the switch is good for now are exclusives. Sometimes they are on PC as long as years before the Switch sees them. And even then, there’s Yuzu and Ryujinx. And those two emulators run great on the Deck and are improving daily.

      I had a PSP and PSVita back in the day, I’m really hoping Sony moves towards a handheld console after the PS5’s lifespan. I really think the PSVita was ahead of it’s time. When you look at what it had, it was so close to being a game changer like the Switch…it’s sad that Sony didn’t give it the attention and support it deserved.

    I had planned on getting a Steam Deck but I don't know if I can justify it. I have a very high end gaming PC (Ryzen 9 + Sapphire NITRO+ 6800xt), a mid-range gaming laptop, multiple Switches, PS4, Xbox One, hacked Wii U with most of library I want installed & a ton more order consoles. I know I'm the target demographic for the Steam Deck but idk if there's anything it can do really that I can't do already. It takes less than a minute to pull out my gaming laptop when I'm traveling and play all the games that are on the Steam Deck and of course I have my main Switch when I want to mobile game. Maybe if I didn't have both the Switch or my gaming laptop than the gap would be filled better with the Steam Deck.

  • @OverdosedCaffeine
    @OverdosedCaffeine Před rokem +1

    The reason why anyone would be sceptical towards the Steam Deck is the fear of the unknown. Why? You may ask. Because ultimately, it is the most personal console/PC handheld device that can do a bit of everything that anyone would want. Unless you absolutely copy the setup of someone else, your experience will never be the same as the other steam deck guy. That said, valve even thought of that so you can play any game at any setting you desire as well as copy other people's profile to get the best visuals or best FPS. Again, wherever your imagination takes you. The possibilities are endless and the only limitation is the user and his will to explore how deep the rabbit hole goes. Except when the hardware starts to show it's age, I suppose. So if you want a portable gaming PC with decent support for gaming as well as a desktop experience, Steam Deck is a future proof investment. I might actually make it my daily driver PC setup if I seriously want one and order it. Building a PC is my primary choice but sadly in Europe it's not a budget friendly investment anymore. Hence why my interest in Steam Deck. I can literally buy a monitor, bundle that to a keyboard and mouse and there is my Linux/Windows PC. Will probably game better than my 10th gen intel soc ultrabook on docked mode too...

    I'm on the waitlist for the steam deck, I think mine should be around august. My friend let me check it out, would love it more than the switch. especially with my robust backlog of games I have never gotten around to on steam. I really want to try it out for emulators when I get mine and I've seen videos for it, seems like a great emulator machine. I mostly care to play older games, ps2 and older era and I've played most of the more modern games that I want to that was on switch and wii, so I'm not really interested in any upcoming games besides xenoblade 3 and Live A Live. I'm not HUGE on nintendo games in the first place but I do enjoy a few like Luigi's mansion, Fire Emblem, and to a much lesser extent, pokemon. The newest one was mediocre to me. A lot of 3rd party games just dont run that well on switch for me or I'll play games like SMT V and it just performs kinda poorly. I honestly just emulated it on my PC and played it at 60 fps and increased resolution to actually play it. So I feel it's kinda obsolete as a device for me.
    I don't think the steam deck is a replacement for a lot of people, especially casual gamers and younger audiences as well as family-friendly and easy to use. It's also heavily more advertised. The only advertisements I see for the steam deck are usually by other gamers, most casual gamers I don't think have heard of it. Especially parents. I love steam cloud and systems way more than anything nintendo as well plus it's great that my impulse purchases of steam sale games that I think may play better on mobile, or that I would prefer to play on mobile, would get some actual use. There's a lot of interest for it and it's good hardware for a good price, the problem I think right now is the optimization. I think it could be REALLY great here in 2 years. Steam deck 2 could be a really fierce competitor for switch since I don't think they will wait as long as switch to release an improved version, possibly. so it could go more head to head.

    I think it really interesting that you talk about the Steam Deck to support running Windows properly so that you could play Valorant but playing Apex just works without issue. Most games like Apex are not supporting Linux natively. Still they run without bigger or even any issues through software (aka Proton and Wine).
    So I would actually prefer that games like Valorant just get playable on Linux instead of hacking around with Windows on the Steam Deck. Because SteamOS is extremely convenient to use while Windows (in any version) would be really annoying.
    Why wouldn't you prefer that? Or do you think it's impossible to happen? Because I think the more handhelds and laptops get published running SteamOS or any other Linux distribution out of the box, the more demand will be to access such games without dual-boot, manual installations or hacking around in a desktop operating system designed for keyboard and mouse connected. Not to mention the license cost included getting Windows on it.
    So for the masses it should be much better if games like Valorant just gets playable on SteamOS, wouldn't it?

    i kinda disagree with Bob @ 4:00 because i am actually a console player, i grew up this way and was never really good gaming on pc even when i tried. Plus, i can't afford a good gaming pc.
    As the steam deck was released i fell in love with it and put money aside till i can afford it because it finally gave me the opportunity to play computer games that do not get released on consoles and put computer & console gaming into one! now i can not only play games on a handheld console but also play games that do not have crossplay with my computer-gaming friends. If i would have had a good gaming pc and all that, i most likely wouldn't have bought a steam deck cause i would have been fine playing the games available on the nintendo switch on the go 😱 p.s. love both of you guys' content! 💖

    Steam did pretty well with this design, portable, dockable, affordable. On top of that though, it’s the standardize “consolize” pc. I’ve never bought a gaming pc, but it’s because of the money, how quick pcs are obsoleted. Steam deck to me, fixes that. To me, this is what X Box should’ve always been

    Not just better hardware, but I hope Nintendo will give us the complete Switch family line-up: Handheld, Hybrid and TV box. If they put together a cohesive account experience, similar to Steam and better than Xbox, the Switch would definitely be an entertainment/gaming juggernaut that would rival Apple and Google’s devices.
    They wanted everyone to get a Switch for each person in the household, so I hope they can leverage this plan with hardware that can interact with one another. Another point that Bob kept mentioning, how many people play their Switch in docked mode versus handheld. I’ve heard it’s over half of the base (maybe less) that uses their Switch in this mode. It would make sense to add a TV box (which could be a “pro” model). If this does happen, I think NVIDIA will drop their Shield TV from the market sadly.
    The account system must be seamless, along with cloud saves, so the experience won’t be interrupted. Valve would be the best to emulate for this process since Xbox’s account system is a bit janky with multiple systems (not the cloud saves though).

    It really feels to me like the "Steam Deck will kill the Switch" argument is only coming from the perspective of the most "serious" gamers.
    Right now, if I want to buy a Steam Deck, I need to place an order for a system that will at some point cost me at least £349, which I will get "sometime" after October, and which, at the unconfirmed moment it does become available, will only be available to me for 72 hours, in which time I need to act fast to actually secure the item I've supposedly already ordered.
    Or, I could go to Argos right now and buy a Switch.
    By the time the Steam Deck gets over all the weird hoops you need to jump through in order to acquire one, and starts to be a widespread success, Nintendo will in all likelihood have moved onto their next console.
    Add onto that in my own network of friends and colleagues who game, only one other than myself really knows what it is, and only a handful of others have even heard of it.
    So while I imagine the Steam Deck will be a success in it's own way, I have serious doubts whether it will ever rise to Switch-level popularity and success. Right now it seems to be catering to a far more niche audience of gamers. And that isn't a criticism (before the PC gamer crowd leaps on me to call me a Nintendo fanboy), but it just seems obvious that the two systems serve very different purposes and cater to different audiences. They'd have to be a lot more comparable for one to kill the other.

      I think you hit the nail on the head.
      My impression was also that most people saying it's a "Switch killer" (btw, good luck trying to "kill" a console that sold 100+ million units so far) weren't interested in the Switch in the first place. Which is valid, of course, Nintendo with its quirks isn't for everyone lol, but it's obviously gonna screw their perception of the general market

      An exclusive optimised edition of a game however could be possible. They have the ability of bundles with the console in the future if required as they own the ecosystem.
      If they somehow connect it with their vr systems it could add more niche appeal perhaps.
